“Honors” (H)
In order to achieve the “Honors” level (designated as “H” on the University Transcript), a student must
achieve a score of 95% or better on each summative assessment or end of term grade (see Method of
Evaluation of Student Progress). The honors level for the APPEs is defined in the course syllabus. The
Honors designation is not used in the introductory experiential courses or elective courses.
“Pass” (P)
In order to achieve the “Pass” level (designated as “P” on the University Transcript), a student
must achieve a score between 85% and 94% on each summative assessment or end of term
grade (see Method of Evaluation of Student Progress). If a student does not achieve at least an
85% on any given assessment, then he or she must remediate that portion of the block
curriculum at the pre-determined time(s) designated on the School’s curriculum calendar and later be
reassessed to achieve a level of 85% or better. Those students that are required to attend extended
learning must also achieve a score of 85% in all coursework in order to progress to the next academic
year.
“Satisfactory” (S)
In order to achieve the “Satisfactory” level (designated as “S” on the University Transcript) in their
elective, a student must achieve the passing score set by the course instructor. There is no remediation
for electives. A student who receives an “Unsatisfactory” (U) in an elective must take an additional
elective to fulfill their elective requirements.
In order to receive the “S” level for the experiential rotation component of the curriculum, a student
must satisfactorily complete all of the assignments of each pharmacy practice experience and score an
average of 75% for all outcomes as designated on the pharmacy practice experience. If a student does
not successfully achieve an average score of 75% for all final outcomes on any rotation, the student
must remediate that rotation, be reassessed, and must achieve an average score of 75% for all final
outcomes.
“No Pass” (NP) or “Unsatisfactory” (U)
A student who does not achieve a “P” “S” or “H” on an assessment, term-long course or experiential
rotation will receive a “NP” or “U” on his or her transcript until the assessment, term-long course or
experiential rotation is successfully remediated.
“Incomplete” (I)
The grade of “I” (incomplete) is to be given only to students whose work in a block or course has been
qualitatively satisfactory, but due to illness or other circumstances beyond their control the student is
unable to complete the requirements for the module during the regularly scheduled time period. In no
case should the grade of “I” be recorded for a student who has not completed satisfactorily the major
portion of the course work. In cases where this grade is given, the student may not re-register for the
course until the “I” is removed by completing work assigned by the instructor. Work must be
completed prior to the end of the next term otherwise the “I” becomes “NP” or “U”.
“Withdrawal” (W)
Withdrawing from the professional program is discouraged. A student who withdraws from a
course or module must retake the course during the regularly scheduled offering of the course.
The Withdrawal Period starts the first day of class. A student will be liable for all university
charges for that term if they have attended the first official day of class. If a student should
withdraw from a module, a “W” (withdrawal) will be reflected on their transcript. To withdraw
